Lou Gehrig on Lou Gehrig's Disease

"The past few weeks you've been reading about a bad break. Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. That I might have been given a bad break, but I've got an awful lot to live for. Thank you."

- Lou Gehrig, July 4, 1939

Lou Gehrig had the experience of being with the Yankees that won the championship year after year. Gehrig knew to count his blessings and found himself lucky. Johnny has the same kind of heart, and he has had Debbie year after year. God bless you, guys.
